This is so wonderful that they have this time to really connect with each other and understand all these things that are both literally affecting their physical relationship and potentially impacting their emotional connection as well. The way forward is never clear but the stronger they are together the better it will be!
Harth let it slip that Zev and Sasha are ardent. Now she has to fare if El will try to kill Zev to gain control, because Harth doesn't know El intentions. She does however know that Tarkyn will do his best to stop anything else from happening to Zev. The question that remains is, are Harth and Tarkyn ardent? Because I believe the bonds are not much different from each other. I think about Aaryn's mom when I say that.
